Choices Colors not working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Tango 1,168

Hi,

I have a fresh environment that has a global Choice list. After creating list I then went back and added some colours.

My Model Driven PowerApp will not display the colours anywhere. One location is in a view.

I seen a video that went into Classic and there was a Role component but when I go into this area, this component does not exist.

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks in advance

Todd

    Hi @Tango 

    Do you have the Power Apps Grid enabled on the table?  Please see the following article:  https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/model-driven-apps/the-power-apps-grid-control 

    From here you can add the control to the entity (classic interface) and then you will need to enable the optionset colors, see below (first highlight).

    Hi dpoggemann - Can you tell me if the Power Apps Grid's OptionSet Colors works with multiselect options?  When I configure a column/field as an Option without multiselect enabled then the chosen option shows its color.  When I configure a column/field as an Option with multiselect enabled then no colors appears for any of the selected options.  The colors show on the dropdown but when selected the colors don't appear.  I am unable to find any examples of this case and no one seems to state whether multiselect colors should work or not.  Any thoughts?
